Women have long been ridiculed for their failure to
discuss war and its problems. Statistics taken in a survey
on the campus revealed that women neither know nor think
much about the cause behind the commotion. Perhaps those
who collected the material for the recent Kernel article on
student views concerning the war failed to consider that
there might be a concealed mo ive in women's reluctance
to voice an opinion.
True, ruffles and bows have seldom entered into the perpetration of universal politics and governmental management, but there has been fear in women's hearts 'to equal
that of men who face a rifle muzzle upon the battlefield.
Lives are precious wages to pay for freedom where gallantly flutters a starred and striped banner of peace . . . lives
of brothers, fathers, lovers, and friends . . . lives of those
once strong and gay . . . lives now summarized in a small
paragraph within an obituary column. It is this realization
that silences the women's cry "Look out Axis powers, here
come the states of America . . . United !"
Three types of women result from war . . . those who no
longer suffer since they have given all; those whose soldiers
returned; and those who must go on living without the one
that so bravely marched away.
"Of which of these three groups will I become a member?" is the question behind women's reluctance to speak.
Each who lives within the shadow of men's wrath know of
the helplessness which strikes home to every woman in wartime. We can do nothing, yet so much remains to be done.
Are we not justified for our intended stupidity? Or must
we be criticized for covering a tear with a smile!- - L. A. M.

He hails from some little jerkwater station back in the
ticks and admits it calls it the greatest little place in
the world.
He has never been elected to a big campus office, or even
very small one. In fact, he has never been nominated.
He's never even thought he ought to be nominated. He has
never been saluted as "Colonel of the Week" or mentioned
in "Vice of the People" or ever been tagged a B.M.O.C.
by even the dizziest of his acquaintances.
He still knows how to blush and does occasionally. To
his. Freud is just another guy in a textbook not a line of
thought. When he hears the mob discuss "bags," "skirts,"
"dolls." or "drips." he can't follow them. He calls a spade
"a spade." and a girl "a girl."
To him a line is strictly something to hang clothes on.
ind what it has to do with a girl's personality, he wants to
know.
He actually thinks the big idea of coming to college is
to learn something.
He doesn't fizz over with unnatural charm upon being
intraduced to a pretty person, and doesn't try to make a
lifetime impression in the first five minutes of conversation. . .
He doesn't subscribe to "Esquire" he frankly can't afprobably wouldn't get a kick out of Petty
